For nearly quarter of a century c. M. Loomis has been engaged in the piano busi- ness in New Haven, and during that time he has sold over 13, 900 instruments, which have invariably proved satisfactory to the pur- chasers. Such reputation has he achieved that his Temple of Music is known through out the State as the place where business is conducted in liberal, enterprising, straight forward and absolutely reliable manner. MT. Loomis now has the agency for the pianos manufactured by Chickering & Son, Haines Brothers, the Opera and 0. H. Stone. His departments of sheet music and general musical merchandise are given careful atten- ton, and his facilities for moving pianos are always maintained at the high standard established years ago.

Lavish your money on tramps that spend keeping you from your household duties, to expatiate upon the merits of some unknown piano or organ. Dismiss them at once with a repression, and when you have time call upon c. M, Loomis, who owes not dollar in the world and pays cash for every dollars worth of goods he buys.

DIDN'T GET MUCH BOOTY.

A Gang of Burglars Enter Many Places

 necticut.
 MIDDLETowN, Nov. S.-Rurglars last night broke into the Dime Savings bank of Croms well, the town clerks office, the postofice and w H. MoDonald's grocery store. The burglars did not obtain much booty One of the banks safes was blown open, but less than $20 was secured. There was $150 in the burglar proof drawers, but they could not get it. The town agents safe was also blown open, but as it contained nothing but town records they were left undisturbed At the postofice only few dollars worth of stamps were taken. At McDonald's grocery store the burglars got 8 few dollars. Other places were entered, but little was taken away. They first entered blacksmith shop and obtained part of the tools that they used. Groceryman Mcdonald has offered reward of $100 for the arrest and conviction of the burglars The savings bank directors will offer a reward. The chief of police of Middletown is Investigating the affair. Three strangers were noticed in Cromwell on Mon day. No clue has yet been obtained. This is probably the same gang that blew up the safe of the Berlin Savings bank and that has been ransacking in Fairfield county.

Ships Which Have Gone Down With
Treasure on Board.

Fron1 the London Telegraph.
The memory Of the loss of G2OO 600 Of
silver and gold will survive the drowning
OF 1000 souls in coup. There was the
LutIne, for instance. She was of thirty-
two guns, commanded by Capt. Skynner,
and she went ashore on the bank Of the
Fly Island passage on the night OF Oct, 9.
1913. AT t1rst she was reputed to have hsd
toO0, 00O sterling, in specie on board. This
was afterward contradicted by state
ment that "the return from the bullion
office makes the whole amount about
&l40,00 sterling" 'If," find in a con.
temporary account, "the wreck of the I'M
fortunate Lutine should be discovered.
there may be reason to hope for the recoy-
cry Of the bullion"
In the reign ofJames H., some English
adventur lifted out vessel to search
Tor and weigh out the cargo of a rich
Spanish ship, which mad been lost on the
coast OF south America. They succeeded
and brought home &300, 900, which had
been forty years at the bottom of the sea

and twice mat sum on the merchants ac-

faundered, andnO man escaped to tell how
and when.
In the same year the Dutch lost the
Antoiuetta, an Indiaman, and with her
sank s 100000 sterling, beside Jewels Of
great value. The Royal Charter is the
most notable instance OF the wreck of a
''lreasure" ship that | can Just now cali
to mind. She left Australia with $3.50
600 in her. OF this sum, says Charles
Dickens jn his chapter on this dreadful
snipwreck In the "Uncomm ercial Tray
el5r," 100000 worth were recovered al
the time OF the nOvelst's visit to the spot
where she had driven ashore.
